Well I guess Alolan Marowak doesn’t exactly need to boost attack much due to that thick club. The problem is that your screwed if someone uses knock off which is also super effective. So a big weakness would be knock off possibly ko it.

Marshadow with its spectral theif is so op. It attacks AFTER gaining the stat changes meaning they factor into the move. It will never collect negative ones and will make all your setup useless. That’s what makes it so scary.

Technician allows the use of moves like rock tomb to go from 60 to 90 base power.

Thing is as an alolan marowak you would try to set up a swords dance to maximise damage and marshadow stakes it all away and hits you with a spectral theif at +2 and super effective. Even if you fully invested everything you could into the marowak it won’t survive
